how close we have come to a real asteroid disaster

2.9 miles long by 1.5 miles wide, and it'll be passing within 1M miles of earth this week... make sure you click on the pic to see the path, and just how close it actually comes... This asteroid would be large enough to cause some MAJOR damage (have you seen Armageddon?)..... scary!

That is just so not cool.....

Since the Hurricane, I've been watching these fatalistic movies...so far, Deep Impact, Armageddon, Space Cowboys, what else.....I need to watch Independence Day again too I guess...

Still don't have cable, gotta watch my movies. :D

We got a few, but will have to look to see what they are, we can't remember. Watching a buttload of movies lately, our cable is still not back since Ivan hit.

I'm still trying to think of what we got.....

We did rent Godsend - lame!!!!!

Punisher was kinda goofy, but good nonetheless. ;) Left room for a sequel.

Why don't you guys ride by?

Do you think I still have time to get a generator? Do you think we'll be without power for long if it hits us? :shock: :lol:
